Watch MSNBC most of the time. I think maybe Jon Stewart might have found the humor in Lawrence O'Donnell counting the times Obama was interrupted by O'Reilly in the recent interview (73 times!) while MSNBC hosts Chris Mathews' show and he's the king of interrupting his guests.
They both (Fox News and MSNBC) went back and forth all the time. Using clips from each others talking heads to point out how biased the other is. If you can't see that they are both biased, it is because you agree with what one is saying.
I'll just leave these two maps here http://www.maproomblog.com/2010/10/us_college_degrees_by_county.php http://www.usatoday.com/news/politicselections/vote2004/countymap.htm
I liked his daily affirmation with Stuart Smalley. It's weird that you don't see many conservative comedians. Dennis Miller is conservative but he's not funny anymore. It's kind of like the lack of liberal radio talkshows.
Off the top of my head... Dennis Miller, Bill Engvall, Jon Cryer, Drew Carey, Jim Belushi, Adam Sandler, Ben Stein, Craig T. Nelson, Jamie Farr, Jeff Foxworthy, Joe Pesci, Kelsey Grammer, Leslie Nielsen, Vince Vaughn.
I suspect a lot of comedians in the black and white movie/TV days were conservatives. Larry the Cable Guy, Patricia Heaton, Ray Romano, Penn Jilette (well, Libertarian).
Out of that list I would say only Dennis Miller, Bill Engvall and Jeff Foxworthy are outspoken conservatives. I wouldn't really even consider Ben Stein and Joe Pesci comedians.
OK I get your point but most left leaning comedians are way left most of these people aren't as conservative as say Limbaugh or Palin are.
Because you say so? That's my point. Patricia Heaton, for example, won two emmys and nominated for five others, basically acclaimed the funniest woman on TV before Raymond ended. She's honorary chair of Feminists for Life, and has appeared in a number of commercials of a political nature. I think you'll find similar background on all the ones I listed.
I've stated my point terribly. Look at the most famous political comedians: Al Franken, Jon Stewart, George Carlin, Lewis Black, Janeane Garofalo, David Cross, etc... They're all pretty far from the center. If those people you listed are just as far from the center as these then there is a world of conservative comics I didn't know existed. I don't even own a T.V. so I could be completely in the dark on this one.
Well, I think there's relatively few who admit to being conservative. And the entertainment biz is notoriously nepotistic. I might ask, who are the liberal action heroes? Guys like John Wayne, Stallone, Ahnold, and the Rock are all vocally conservatives.
Gosh, I guess these folks on the Left are far too credentialed and intellectual for me. BTW, there are so many worthless, shitbag colleges and universities out there as to make an undergraduate degree and many graduate degrees worthless.
